Question

Which of the following diatomic molecular species has only π bonds according to molecular orbital theory?

पर्याय

• N₂

• C₂

• Be₂

• O₂

Answer 1

C₂ 

Explanation:

C₂: KK (σ2s)² (σ*2s)² (π2p_x)² = (π2p_y)²

As a result, only π orbitals are involved in bonding, per molecular orbital theory.
